Monthly Meetings
Join us on June 2, at 7:30 a.m. at the Watershed Center for our Monthly Meeting
Eric Fuselier will present “The Importance of Species Selection for Improving Stormwater Quality with Native Plants.”
Mr. Fuselier is a public speaker and environmental scientist with over 10 years of experience working with engineers and landscape architects to select native plant species for rain gardens, bioswales, detention ponds, and stream banks. In these projects, Eric often utilizes current research in phytoremediation by selecting species that have the ability to facilitate the breakdown of contaminants commonly found in stormwater runoff. Eric also serves on the Missouri Prairie Foundation’s Grow Native! committee, as well as the board of directors for the Beaver Watershed Alliance in Northwest Arkansas.
Megan Terry with the National Weather Service will provide a quarterly update, and meeting attendees are encouraged to share brief updates and news items. Meet us at the Watershed Center, 2400 E Valley Water Mill Road, Springfield, MO 65803
